Send us a textIn this special episode, we share a conversation with a friend in Italy whom the Lord delivered out of the Jehovah's Witness cult. Not only was he pulled out of the fire, but the Lord graciously put him by the streams of living water through personal discipleship relationships as well as healthy Christians books from faithful servants of the past like Charles Spurgeon, John Calvin, Jonathan Edwards, and others. We pray that you enjoy our conversation and be encouraged to continue reaching the lost in your context. Daniel also shares some practical tips for reaching JW's.Links:Episode on YoutubeOpportunities to Serve PMc SpeakpipeFreely join the online Discord group of PMc!

Send us a textWe are now picking up our series on Questions and Answers. This process began back when we used to have Q&A panels with missionaries and students from the USA at SBI. It is a great way to let people ask questions about missions, evangelism, and church planting to real missionaries to Italy. The question for today is an important one because this life-changing and forming discipline has been largely lost in our day.Q | How do you do family worship/devotions on the mission field?  In addition to sharing how we personally live this out, we also share why this is so important, 3 practical tips, and two book recommendations for others.Links:Episode on YoutubeBook Recommendation: The Most Important Place on EarthBook Recommendation: A Neglected GraceTo ask your own question send us a message through the PMc site or leave us a voice message on the PMc Speakpipe. Freely join the online Discord group of PMc!
